To develop a Property Transformation Strategy to demonstrate how the creative use of the borough’s property, land and partnerships will transform service delivery and support business outcomes in Waltham Forest.

Working closely with senior officers in the Property and Asset Management team, we developed a strategy to clearly articulate how the intelligent and creative use of the borough’s land and property assets will be used to help deliver outstanding services in new ways; support regeneration and sustainable economic growth; provide financial resilience for the Council; and create a lasting legacy for the benefit of the local community. The strategy includes a delivery route map setting out the strategic projects and activities planned against the relevant corporate business outcomes.

“Inner Circle provide a quality product, they are a multi-disciplinary consultancy – there are not many that have the depth of that sector and I would say they are better than other consultancies as they walk in step with you and actually one or two steps ahead of you. Rather than being directive, they understand relationships; they are technical but understand delivery in a complex environment and there’s always humour there at the end of the day. If you asked me how likely are you to ask you to bid/put a proposal in for future work? I’d say we’re already working with them again.”
